(“Algonquin”), Algonquin (AY Holdco) B.V. (“AY Holdco”), and AAGES (AY Holdings) B.V. (“AY Holdings”) (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”), relates to the ordinary shares, nominal value of $0.10 per share (“Ordinary Shares”), of Atlantica Sustainable Infrastructure plc (the “Issuer”), a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, as described herein in more detail. The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at Great West House, GW1, 17th Floor, Great West Road, Brentford, United Kingdom TW8 9DF. Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized term used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Original Schedule 13D.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2 is hereby amended as follows:

Schedule A to the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as set forth on Schedule A to this Amendment No. 11 and incorporated by reference herein are the names, business addresses, present principal occupations or employments, and citizenship of each director and executive officer of the Reporting Persons.

Item 3 is hereby amended as follows:

On March 13, 2020, Arthur Kacprzak, Algonquin’s Chief Financial Officer, in his individual capacity, used approximately $2,231.00 from his personal funds to purchase 100 Ordinary Shares on the open market at $22.31 per share.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended as follows:

The Issuer has established an “at-the-market program” for an aggregate offering size of up to $150,000,000 (the “ATM Program”), by which the Issuer may offer and sell its Ordinary Shares at any time and from time to time through J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “Agent”), through ordinary brokers’ transactions through the NASDAQ Global Select Market at market prices, in block transactions or as otherwise agreed between the Issuer and the Agent.

In connection with the ATM Program and for purposes of maintaining Algonquin’s existing preemptive right under the Shareholders Agreement, dated as of March 5, 2018, by and among Algonquin, Abengoa-Algonquin Global Energy Solutions B.V. and the Issuer, on August 3, 2021, Algonquin entered into a letter agreement (the “ATM Plan Letter Agreement”) with the Issuer, pursuant to which the Issuer will, for each quarter during which the Issuer sells Ordinary Shares under the ATM Program, offer Algonquin or one or more of its subsidiaries as designated by Algonquin (the “Algonquin Investor”) the right but not the obligation to purchase up to a number of Ordinary Shares to maintain its percentage interest in the Issuer at the average price of the Ordinary Shares sold in the previous quarter under the ATM Program (the “ATM Preemptive Right”). If the Algonquin Investor exercises the ATM Preemptive Right, subject to certain conditions described in the ATM Plan Letter Agreement, the Issuer and the Algonquin Investor will enter into a subscription agreement with a settlement date up to the later of (a) one hundred and eighty calendars days following Algonquin’s notice that it is subscribing for the Ordinary Shares (the “Investor Notice”), provided that such date is prior to January 1, 2023, and (b) the twelfth business day following the Investor Notice.

Mr. Kacprzak holds his Ordinary Shares for investment purposes. Mr. Kacprzak may, from time to time, depending on market conditions and other considerations, purchase additional shares or dispose of some or all of the Ordinary Shares held by him.
